Asus ROG Flow X16 is a heavyweight contender for a replacement for your desktop

Once you have spent a week on the Asus ROG Flow X16, chances are you will not be able to go back to your old laptop. I am using the word ‘laptop’ a little too freely here because this is so much more than anything on the market. The X16 is as much a creator’s machine as it is a dream purchase for any gamer. Further, considering its use case, lightness is the word that hit me first on holding the device with one hand. Let’s look at what this machine has to offer that others don’t.

Uncompromising display

I am going to start with the display because it is one of the finest I have seen on a laptop, comparable to the one on the MacBook Pro 16. There are small differences but this 16-inch Mini LED, Nebula HDR display is among the best, be it in terms of colour reproduction, contrast, deep blacks as well as refresh rate.
